OK well "everbody" was an exadgeration but a lot of PHP users write their own stuff. Right ok...here we go lets see what the search results for CMS threads are:

Don't know what this other thing is, but I am in the process of creating a CMS (Content Management System) and I am implementing the smarty tempating engine for it. It's very easy to use, and there are tons of tutorials on it, just google "Smarty Tutorials". Here are some examples from my CMS:
[miss two results, CMS appears in some guy's code]

[somebody using a CMS doesn't say anything about it]

[Another 5 threads from same guy with $cms in his code]

I have a cms that allows the owners to upload PDF's and they are automatically listed on the website page by their names.

I would like to provide a summary of the PDF
God that took far too long.
EDIT: I realise CMSes aren't libraries but...ahh <span style='color:blue' title='I&#39;m naughty, are you naughty?'>smurf</span>, I'm not doing all that again.

New users tend to try to implement everything. Intermediate users find out about libraries and use them profusely. Advanced users know about the libraries but 80% the library doesn't do what they want it to.

I'd just like to say we use HTMLPurifier in IRIS for filtering emails against XSS attacks and we've been more than impressed. Nice work AC, thanks :)

Thanks for the comments! In case no-one noticed, 1.2.0 came out two days ago, with a bunch of enhancements in various areas.

d11wtq, I've been thinking about putting up a "Praise/Current users" section on the homepage, do you mind if I use IRIS as an example?
